CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

Senate Roll Call 517

119th Congress · Session 1 · September 15, 2025

The vote on whether to adopt the resolution

A resolution is one chamber speaking for itself — setting its own rules, taking a position, honouring someone — and it never goes to the President. Agreeing to it is the whole decision.

What was being voted on

119-SRES-377 — An executive resolution authorizing the en bloc consideration in Executive Session of certain nominations on the Executive Calendar.

This resolution authorizes the Senate to consider several nominations in an en bloc fashion during an Executive Session. The list includes various individuals nominated for leadership and official positions across several federal departments and agencies. These roles span sectors such as defense, energy, agriculture, and international diplomacy. The resolution specifically targets nominations currently appearing on the Executive Calendar. By moving to consider these together, the Senate can process these appointments as a single group.
